I'm happy with people nice enough to help newbies like me.
However, as a newbie, I would like to understand the 20 rep rule.... I guess it's to protect us from something... but I don't know protect us from what exactly?

Protect everyone moon.
unknown person shows up giving away multiple high tier cards...he'll, even the Santa Claus guy was giving away hacked silver slimes with other aces he hacked, so there are hacked base line cards. ..where'd they come from, who knows? Hacked? Maybe!

Also having the rep requirement at least gives the impression that the persons been around a little and knows the rules and law of the land and isn't going to do some shady stuff.

People with one rep in a giveaway will usually be offering other game services, etc for something or other. It will sometimes have a shady aspect to it by my experience.

There are people like myself who don't trade rarely and I relished he day I got twenty rep... It took me a long time but I did it so I could help out in the giveaway sections.

In people's giveaways, requiring people to have rep to enter keeps people from making multiple accounts (with zero rep) and getting extra entries in giveaways to try to win contests by having more in terms of numbers than other players.

Rep system is good, but its only as good as the people's descriptions they put in the box. With it done right one can kind of track cards and get a heritage of sorts if they feel a card is fishy. Trace it backwards

Question for moderators, Could you add a rule stating that people doing giveaways should include what device they're giving away on?? I'm just starting to use an android tablet, so it would be nice to not be confused... thanks
